Mac and cheese by Lionel Rigolet

The ultimate comfort food! This fresh take on the classic Mac&Cheese uses Gruyère AOP to create a creamy, characterful dish with a spicy sweetness. Infused with the aromas of green curry and fresh marjoram, it unleashes a rich, savoury burst with every bite. A hearty meal to indulge in alongside a baby leaf salad for added freshness.
